Gemma's Birthday

I love this stamp called Uptown Bentley gets blown away from Stamping Bella. I made this card for the Boyfs cousin Gemma. I went with all bright summery warm colours to celebrate her birthday.

I love these colours together. Yellow is def my favourite at the mo - Maybe its the summer vibe and the memory of sunshine (Haven't had much of the real thing!)
The ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl and I have this twill in every colour. I love it - I think the width if perfect to make it a feature on the card.
I cut circle from Echo park paper called Blue Sky using a Fiskars circle cutter. I covered the square card in two different patterned papers from My Favourite things Dots and stripes paper called Sherbet. The Greeting is from Pebbles and the letters spelling out Gemma are from Doodlebug. The gem swirls are from Hobbycraft. I added glaze to the middle balloon and then sprinkled some Cosmic Shimmer it before it set. I attached the image using 3D foam.

A lovely card. Your image is wonderful and the yellow and pink colour combination is fabulous. The bling and sparkle from the glitter and gems is a great detail. Thanks for sharing with us at Crafty Cardmakers and more. Sally.x.

About Me

I have always been a bit of an addict to crafty things and colour.... I would walk around lovely shops thinking "Umm... wonder if I could make one like that?" So I started trying. I love colourful patterns and paper and putting them together on my Handmade cards. But the blog & facebook page started to give the Monkeys a home! I make Sock Monkeys under the name, "Lilibet made Monkeys". The Monkeys are available for sale and can be made to order as can any cards. Email me at lilibetsmonkeyhut@hotmail.co.uk
You can also see Monkeys looking for new homes and other items available to buy on my Pintrest, Instagram Flickr and facebook page.
Just search for Lilibets Monkey Hut (:(|)x
